*** This is part of the reason why it is so important to own property and not rent. ***

Yep, but renters should still read the lease, most don't.

Even owning has drawbacks with an association. Ours, after 30 years of no problems, *tried* to write up an entirely new covenant agreement. I alone had ten pages of exceptions.

We owners 'stormed the meeting with Pitchforks'. The new covenant agreement went into the trash.

Good for you, before you know it, the little minded nazi's on the board would be sending you demeaning letters telling you how to paint your home, plant your shrubbery, smoke your cigars in certain areas and what size car you can own and park on your own property.

A typical apartment lease these days is ten pages of fine print. I'll bet more of them than we realize have a "no firearms" clause.

As much as I disagree with it, I think it may be a liability issue for the property managers to have tenants owning guns. After all, they're the ones who are going to get sued if an irresponsible tenant accidentally discharges a firearm into another unit.
